帖撒羅尼迦後書 1
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
問安
1 保羅、賽拉斯、提摩太,
致那在神我們的父和主耶穌基督裡的帖撒羅尼迦人的教會:
2 願恩典與平安從神我們的父和主耶穌基督臨到你們!
主的報償
3 弟兄們,我們應該為你們常常感謝神,這樣做是合宜的,因為你們的信仰格外增長,你們大家每一個人彼此的愛也在增加。 4 所以,我們自己在神的各教會中以你們誇耀,因為你們在一切的逼迫和患難中保持著你們的忍耐和信仰。 5 這正是神公義審判的證據,好使你們算是配得上神的國;你們也正是為此而受苦害的。 6 神既然真是公義的,當主耶穌與他有大能的天使們一起從天上顯現的時候,他就要以患難回報那些加患難給你們的人, 7 也要使你們這些受患難的人與我們一同得到安息[a]。 8 神要在烈火中報應那些不認識神的人,以及那些不順從我們主耶穌[b]福音的人; 9 他們將受到刑罰,就是永遠的滅亡,從主面前被隔絕,離開他權能的榮耀。 10 在那日,主來臨的時候,要藉著他的聖徒得著榮耀,又藉著所有的信徒令人驚奇——因為你們相信了我們對你們所做的見證。 11 為此,我們也常常為你們禱告:願我們的神把你們看為配得他的召喚,並且以他的大能成全你們一切美好的心願和一切信仰的行為, 12 好使我們主耶穌[c]的名,照著我們的神和主耶穌基督的恩典,因你們得著榮耀,你們也因他得著榮耀。

2 Thessalonians 1
New King James Version
Greeting
1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy,
To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 (A)Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
God’s Final Judgment and Glory
3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other, 4 so that (B)we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God (C)for your patience and faith (D)in all your persecutions and [a]tribulations that you endure, 5 which is (E)manifest[b] evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, (F)for which you also suffer; 6 (G)since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with [c]tribulation those who trouble you, 7 and to give you who are troubled (H)rest with us when (I)the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 (J)These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and (K)from the glory of His power, 10 when He comes, in that Day, (L)to be (M)glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who [d]believe, because our testimony among you was believed.
11 Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would (N)count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and (O)the work of faith with power, 12 (P)that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
